Two days after the fall of Remut, the lives of the citizens of the Blazing Eye remained the same. It was a scorching hot day, and there was no one in sight of the town in the morning. At noon, the streets began to come alive. Most of the people went to work in factories and outside the town, and a small number remained at home, mainly the elderly and children, who had little workforce.

And in the evening, the Eye of the Flame is truly alive and well throughout the day. Allen's tavern was in the process of being rebuilt after an accident a few days ago, and many people laughed at Allen's iron rooster for it, preferring to spend money on a woman's stomach rather than repair his own broken tavern.

The Eye of the Flame isn't just one tavern for Allen, there's another "good old man" tavern in the middle of town in the back of town. It's just that Old Hawke, who runs the tavern, has a bad temper, and the wine he brews is bitter and bitter, and few people visit it on weekdays. Now that Alan's tavern can't be visited for a while, the men of the town have nowhere to go, so they naturally flock to this old tavern.

Nostalgic music was playing in the tavern, and the lights weren't as hot as in the Flame Bar, let alone the spicy dancers. The corners of the tavern are littered with cobwebs, and the tables and chairs are old, and the calm ground swayed from time to time, making the beer in the dirty glasses sway.

Even though the conditions of the tavern were so poor, it was packed with people on both nights. People sit around the table and throw themselves into chairs, and the candles on the table flicker the light on their faces, making people feel as if they have returned to the old days.

The Blaze Bar is blazing and allows people to burn all their passion. But the good old man is nostalgic here, and people can remember those things that have passed away in the dim light, whether beautiful or poignant.

In the east corner of the tavern, a man sits alone. He faced the bar, which was littered with a few bullets and a bottle of wine that Old Hawke had hidden in the cellar for years. It was almost the most hode in the tavern, so looking at the red wine with a slight purple-black halo, many men smacked their mouths, but no one dared to come forward and ask for a favor.

Because they knew that the man sitting there was something they could not afford to provoke. This man, along with six or seven capable people, had recently become the personal guard of the Tiesen Company. In the small place of the Eye of the Flames, it is rare to see a single capable person on weekdays, but now there are nearly eight people pouring in at once, and people are not only speculating about whether Tiesen will make any big moves next.

The citizens of the Eye of Flames naturally couldn't tell how high or low these abilities were, and how powerful they were. All they had to do was know that any capable person could raze the town to the ground, and that was enough for them to subconsciously stay away from the man sitting at the bar.

Zero doesn't mind being isolated, and the group of capable people is inherently incompatible with most ordinary people. Although they are the same race, from a genetic point of view, the capable ones are already creatures that are gradually moving away from the human race. While people are afraid of the able, they also learn to stay away from them, lest a certain capable person get out of control and draw them into the vortex of death.

He drank alone, and after a few days of idleness in the Eye of the Flames, he relaxed with zero safety. He didn't do his own training as usual every day, and in the past few days, except for participating in the combat meeting between the three captains, the rest of the time Zero was almost either sleeping or resting. In Kaede's words, it is to eat and wait for death.

Zero has no objection to this. He knew very well that the rest of the trip to Jotunheim would not be easy. A qualified fighter must not only constantly exercise his combat skills, but also know how to rest and recuperate.

All Zero is doing now is letting the crumbling spring in his heart loosen so that when the need arises, it becomes stronger and more adaptable to the pressure.

It's just that to outsiders, it's more like an excuse for being lazy.

Just as he had poured himself a small piece of red wine, the door of the tavern was pushed open, and a tall woman entered.

It's a vegetarian.

She was still wearing the Night God's tactical suit, but now she wore a robe outside. The fluttering of the long coat will always bring out the graceful curves under the clothes, making the gaze that falls on Su more intense.

With the continuous improvement of ability, while the gene is evolving, it will also complete and modify the physical defects of the ability. Therefore, in the shijie of the able, the women are all hot and good-looking, while the men are strong, handsome and mighty. Although each person's form is different, in general, they are all evolving towards the goal of "perfection".

For example, Su, when Zero first met her, she was also a little hotter. However, the skin is rougher and the appearance is more ordinary. And now that Su is already a sixth-order berserker soldier, the improvement of her ability has made her figure completely show the golden ratio, and Su's skin has also become smooth and elastic, and the original ordinary appearance has also changed on this basis.

The changes are not obvious, but if you compare Zero with her first meeting and her current appearance, you will see that she has changed now or just has a more upturned nose, her eyebrows are a little longer, her eyes are brighter, and her lips are slightly thicker. But it was these subtle changes, through the cooperation of the five senses, that were beautiful enough to turn all the men in this tavern into beasts.

Now these men are still sitting in their places, firstly, in the direction of Su to zero, and secondly, they know that Su is also a capable person.

Su sat down next to Zero, no one dared to sit next to Zero anyway, and he sat alone in the entire bar, known as a position.

"Don't you want me to have a drink?" Su Chaoling sighed at the bottle of red wine next to him.

Zero shook his head with a smile, asked the bartender for a child, then poured it on Su, and then pushed it to her: "You came here on purpose, shouldn't you just come to drink the bar." ”

I took a sip of it, and at the end of my lips there were a few drops of wine. Her lips opened slightly, and with a sweep of her lilac tongue, she swept them clean. These movements are full of charm, and even Zero can see a slight sign, and it takes a moment to come back to his senses.

"Captain Agatha told you that we need to prepare. There has been news from Jotunheim that they will be coming to receive the goods tonight. Su said nonchalantly.

Zero's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded, "They're finally here." ”

Jotunheim and Tieson have a set of contact methods that only the Pathfinder knows, which is an energy crystal given to Tiesen by the creator that can act like elemental communication. However, the communication is one-sided, and the communication spar placed at the head of Tieson's bed will only inform Tiesen in advance through the communication spar when Jotunheim comes to receive the goods every month.

Just 10 minutes earlier, Agatha had received a communication signal for one of the successors of the Tieson family under her control to start preparing the factory for the goods, and she had the Tavern change in preparation for the upcoming operation.

From Tieson's memory, Zero knew that Jotunheim would come with some mammoth-sized corpse beasts every time they made a delivery. The sulphur and thermal batteries are sorted into containers, inspected by intelligent heralds, loaded onto trucks, and pulled away by Jotunheim's corpses.

To this end, zero they developed a jihua.

This operation will be participated by eight of them, and the servants and thunder guards will remain in the eye of the flames. The fewer people who go to Jotunheim, the harder it is to be detected. What's more, going deep into the corpse country, whether it is a servant or a thunder guard, Liliang is negligible. After all, their mission was not to sabotage Jotunheim, and even if they were, they brought their servants with them.

When Jotunheim's corpse arrives, Zero and the others will prepare an additional shipping container. After the corpses have been inspected, Zero Eight will hide in the container, which will be loaded onto the truck by servants disguised as workers. Along the way, Agatha activates an ability to "Sense Block". The basic ability of this perception domain is not very useful for high-level or even the same level of ability, but it is enough to fool the living corpses that accompany the car.

The general direction of the whole jihua is determined by zero, and the details of the jihua are supplemented by Agatha. As for Berrien, he admired the aesthetics of violence and did not take any courses in strategy at all.

Of course, no jihua is perfect. In the eyes of the planner, no matter how perfect Jihua is, there may be variables, and what Zero envisions is only the most feasible Jihua, as for variables, it can only be improvised.

After drinking a drop of red wine from the bottle, he paid for the wine and left with Su Yang.

Two hours later, two sirens rang out over the Eye of Flame, signaling that Jotunheim's living corpse was about to enter the city. Hearing the alarm, the Good Old Guy Bar closes early. The drinkers left one after another, returning to their homes like the pedestrians on the street, carefully closing their doors and windows. Curious children are taken away from their parents' windows, and a cluster of the living dead is not a pleasing sight, and no parent wants their children to stay awake at night at the sight of those horrific dead.

In Tieson's villa, Zero, who heard the siren, came to the window. Looking through the fourth-floor window towards the outskirts of the Eye of Flames, a gray torrent was rolling in. Appearing in front of the torrent are four mammoth-like monsters, which are very similar in appearance to mammoths, but their bodies are hairless, and their bodies are broken in many places, and the tissues under the flesh can be seen. In the tube groove connects the head, chest and abdomen, and bursts of green light flow in the tube groove, mysterious and eerie.

This is the war behemoth that Jotunheim transports supplies, and is not known for attacking itself. Good at attacking, serving as guards are a dozen or so black corpse wolves on both sides of this torrent. They resemble Fenri wolves, hairless like living mammoths, their black flesh rotting in many places, and their blood-red eyes glittering with crystalline light. Their four claws are constantly spilling out a red halo, leaving bands of light in the air as they walk, and they are obviously not just for decoration. And when the corpse wolf walks around, it will occasionally open its mouth and exhale. There are patches of red foehn in the breath, no accident, it should be the main attack method of this corpse wolf.

On top of that, the rest of the team were ordinary living corpses, numbering nearly a hundred, who followed the torrent of death and poured into the Eye of Flames.

Both the mammoth and the corpse wolf were new weapons that Zero had never seen before, and after seeing them, neither Zero nor Agatha's gaze could be called relaxed. In this way, Jotunheim should have more than just a biological weapon.

The torrent of death drove into the town and arrived at the loading and unloading site of the Tiesen factory. In the group, a herald stepped out. It and other living corpses on the surface

There is no difference in going up, but they can use human language like the Creator. After a brief conversation with the company's supervisor, the herald went to the containers that had already been loaded and inspected.

While the herald was inspecting the goods, a few people who had left the villa and came to the factory entered through the back door of the warehouse and quickly got into an empty container that had been prepared for a long time. The cargo box had been loaded with some goods in advance for disguise, and Zero Line quickly drilled into the gap behind the goods, and when Agatha laid a "sense block" around it, the container was completely sealed.

In the pitch-black crate, a faint yellow fluorescence lit up a moment later. The glow came from the glow sticks in Kaede and Johnny's hands, and several glow sticks were placed on top of each other at the bottom of the box, acting as lighting. After doing all this, the container shook for a while, but the factory began to load.

Agatha sat cross-legged on the ground, with a portable brain in her hand. After Agatha entered several commands in quick succession, several hidden cameras installed outside the container were connected to the brain. The cargo box, which conceals the eight abilities of Asgard, has been placed at the bottom under the deliberate dispatch of the servants to facilitate the observation of the outside environment.

After a moment of information connection, several windows open on the screen of the brain. Through these windows, information about the external environment can be seen at a glance.

After loading the cargo, the living corpses connected the twelve-wheeled pallet trucks with ferrite and mammoths. Each mammoth grabbed a pallet truck full of goods and slowly drove out of the factory, and as soon as they moved, a dozen black wolves immediately dispersed to act as guards. Ordinary living corpses are still in the palace, and their job is not only to load and unload goods, but also to be one of the guards accompanying the car.

And just like that, the torrent of death left the Eye of Flame. After they left, the townspeople breathed a sigh of relief, and the town began to bustle again.

The journey was unexpectedly long.

After leaving the Eye of the Flames, the Torrent of Death traveled a day before leaving the scorching valley where the town was located. Behind the valley is a plain, like most of the wilderness along the coastline, but here it is more inhospitable. From the cameras installed on the perimeter of the containers, the plain saw only the occasional low trees, but there was not the slightest sign of ruins or even power towers.

Just because the plains are desolate doesn't mean they don't have life. On the contrary, the plains are overgrown with mutant plants, and the mutant herds that appear from time to time are frequent visitors to the plains. They swept the weeds along the plains, herbivores that feed on weeds even though they have mutated genetically. Wherever the mutant cows go, they will always see corpse wolves in packs, and the occasional lone one in the herd will become a delicacy in their belly.

In addition, hedgehogs, burrowing rats, two-headed eagles, and steel horned leopards appear from time to time, dotting the vitality of this plain.

At the end of the plain, there is a towering mountain. The mountain is steep and shaped like a knife, plunging straight into the radiant clouds of the sky. The base of the mountain is as wide as I don't know how many kilometers, and there is no end to the north and south from left to right. There are dense woods growing at the bottom of the mountain, but the higher you go, the sparser the trees become. Halfway up the mountain, it is a yellow-brown mountain. When we reached the mountain, which was close to the radiating clouds, there was already a snow line. Above the snow line, the snow is covered and stretches into the clouds.

On the sixth day after leaving the Eye of the Flames, the materiel team had crossed the plains, and this was the result of the fact that the living corpses were not tired enough to be able to travel day and night, otherwise it would have taken several more days. The team entered from a certain part of the mountain in front of them and walked along the rugged mountain road Xiangshang. After another two days, the team entered the shijie inside the clouds. From the camera, the whole shijie is windy.

The freezing wind mixed with ice chips whistled and flew, and from time to time there were flickering shocks, running thousands of miles in an instant. In this cloud, there are hardly any protruding parts of the mountain. Anything that was too sharp had already been smoothed out by the wind, and all that was left was a flat, bald stone. In this cruel environment, there is no room for half a trace of fragility, so the remaining rocks are as hard as steel, otherwise they would have been worn away by the cold wind and freezing air.

Even tireless living corpses are very hard to walk in such an environment. In the wind-swept clouds, only a mammoth of war can sail against the wind. And the black wolf who acted as a guard had to lie down and take advantage of the ups and downs of the mountain to block the wind in order to crawl forward. As for the other living corpses, they were blown to the ground and walked among the clouds on the top of the mountain for two days, and when they left this forbidden land of life, at least twenty or so living corpses and two black wolves remained on the mountain forever, becoming the ornaments of those icy shijie.

After leaving the mountain, it took another two days. In this way, it has been thirteen days since Zero and them left the Eye of Flames, a small time of half a month, not short, not long, but Zero They have left the coastline for tens of thousands of kilometers. After spending so many days in the container, even Kaede, who talked the most, became silent, and Berrien began to get irritable.

Fortunately, three days later, the team bypassed a vast radiant lake, and after entering a forest behind the lake, the destination of Zero and the others finally arrived.

Jotunheim, the kingdom of the living corpse, is located in this vast primeval forest. The heart of the forest was cleared of a clearing about ten kilometers wide, on which Jotunheim was built. In Agatha's screen, because of the perspective of the angle, the scenery that Zero and others can see is very limited. But no matter what angle you look, you can't miss the tall square dust pillar that towers in the middle of Jotunheim.

The square dust pillar is made of blood-red rock, and the whole column is dark red, with thick black lines all over the column body. In these lines, there are sometimes dazzling red rays, and I don't know what the effect is. On top of the giant pillar, I don't know what else has been built. I saw occasional streamers blasting into the air from the top of the giant pillar, and then exploding like fireworks, bright and bright.

As everyone's minds were drawn to the obelisk in the middle of Jotunheim, Zero suddenly felt a chill welling up behind him. The chill swept through his spine and into the back of his head in an instant, and the broken hair of Zero was raised gently at once, and the roots were upside down.

Great danger looms!
